Chapter 734
Chapter 734
After an unknown amount of time, Lamilna finally escaped. Turning around, he saw that there were only a few people around him or even following him.
The team of several thousand people was almost wiped out, with only a hundred people left. Even his most capable adjutant was killed by Lu.
Thinking back to the time when he had not listened to the advice, at the moment when the demon general Lu died, they would have almost been wiped out.
If he had not brought the information back to Her Majesty the Queen, Lamilna's crime would have been even more serious. The more he thought about it, the more scared he became. He felt very sorry for his adjutant who had already died.
"Captain... There is a village ahead. What should we do?"
A soldier with a little status in the team replaced the adjutant and sought advice from Lamilna, who was tired on the side.
"Let's go over there to reorganize and rest, and evacuate the villagers there. This place is too close to the battlefield. It won't be long before the demons will attack here. It will be very dangerous to stay here."
Lamilna said seriously that the periphery was basically undefendable and had to be withdrawn to the central area, where there were sufficient troops and strict defenses. Even the powerful demons would find it difficult to attack there.
When they came to the village, the elves living there were very hospitable. When they saw their own kind coming, they communicated very friendly.
But unfortunately, everyone was not here to play, and even came with a bad news, telling everyone that the demons were gradually approaching.
The villagers who heard the news showed horrified expressions and returned to their homes to pack their luggage. No one questioned Lamilna's words. The elves still had a strong sense of trust in their own kind.
After about two or three hours, all the elves felt uneasy in their hearts. They could feel the emotions of the forest and nature to a certain extent.
This feeling of uneasiness means that danger is approaching and the forest is feeling pain because of the invaders.
We couldn't wait any longer, so Lamilna led the villagers to the center. If they stayed, they would be caught up by the demons at any time.
It took almost a whole day for Lamilna to lead everyone to the center of the elf tribe, which was called the Elf City by the outside world.
"Why are there so many people?!"
Lamilna looked around in surprise. Although the city was already prosperous, it was the first time he saw such a large crowd of people that he couldn't even walk.
Looking around carefully, many elves with dusty faces stood in place to rest. They looked similar to Lamilna's side, and they looked very tired and embarrassed.
"Could it be that other places have also fallen?"
A bad thought emerged from Lamilna's mind. He continued to look around, and he really saw many familiar faces. The captains who went out to greet the enemy like himself had returned here at this moment.
There were only a few soldiers and officers around him, and there was no need to think that everyone's sacrifice was very serious.
"Damn it!"
Lamilna couldn't help cursing when he saw this. When he thought of his companions and the forest being severely persecuted, he felt extremely painful.
"Child, who saw my child?!"
Even because of the chaos in the city, some elf mothers were separated from their children. They forced themselves to move in the chaotic crowd to find their children. This looked very dangerous.
"Let me help you find it. What does your child look like?"
Lamilna couldn't stand it anymore and took the initiative to help find it. The elf mother subconsciously felt a little scared when she saw the clothes on Lamilna, but for the sake of her child, she could only bite the bullet and nod her head.
The elves' hierarchical concept is also very obvious. Ordinary elves cannot disobey high-level elves. The other party's status is higher than theirs.
Although it is not so serious that you will lose your head if you offend the other party, you will also cause yourself all kinds of trouble.
It was not easy to find the child in such a crowd. Lamilna, who had not rested much, was so tired that he could not find the child. In the end, the child's mother found the child herself. The child was obedient and did not wander around after getting lost. He stayed where he was and waited for his mother to find him.
Although Lamilna did not help much, the child's mother came to thank him, but after saying thank you, she took the child and left, as if she did not want to communicate with him more.
This feeling made Lamilna a little confused. He wondered why he felt so alienated from ordinary elves. The elves loved nature and their own kind, but why was there such a thick gap between them?
"LamilnaCaptain Na, Her Majesty the Queen wants to see you."
Before Lamilna could come up with an answer, the soldiers of the Elf City came to him and conveyed Her Majesty the Queen's will.
"Got it, I'll go right over. "
Lamilna had a premonition, nodded and followed the soldiers.
The originally crowded streets made way for everyone when they saw Lamilna following the soldiers in the city.
Some people even fell to the ground because they were too anxious, but they didn't even mean to cry out in pain and quickly got up, fearing that they would be noticed by Lamilna and the soldier, and fled into the crowd.
Lamilna looked at this scene with a complicated expression and shook his head gently. Now was not the time to think about these things.
Soon the two came to the palace and went to the throne of Her Majesty the Queen.
Not only was Lamilna summoned, but the captains of other troops also rushed over. Everyone gathered together for a heated discussion, as if arguing about something.
Lamilna listened silently for a while, and found that what they were arguing about was whether to ask for help from the outside world.
After all Although the elves are very united internally, they have always had a resistance to outsiders.
Whether it is going out to the outside world or people from outside coming to visit, the elves' attitude is not very good.
Now someone proposed to ask for help from outsiders, which also indirectly proves how serious the situation of the elves is at the moment.
The elves are divided into two factions. Some people think that they would rather die than seek help from outsiders. The elves can survive this difficult time on their own.
Some people also think that they need to ask for help. There have been cases of seeking help from brave men before. There is no need to close themselves off. It is time for the elves to go outside.
Lamilna also noticed a pattern. Most of the elves who are unwilling to seek help from the outside world are older elves who have stayed in the forest for a long time.
Those who are willing to seek help from the outside world are young people. It seems that the concepts of elves at two different ages are generally different.
